The Visitor: In which we traumatize Jude. Captain Dad is the best even when temporally displaced. What else did this writer do? Oh, In the Pale Moonlight. Uh oh. The one mistake they made is getting Alexander Siddig's aging completely wrong. Some tech Trek gets right, some it gets hilariously wrong.
Hippocratic Oath: O'Brien/Bashir besties. Ketrecel White! Cop Worf does not gel with Wet PI Odo. A lot of characters don't feel right in this episode.

Be ready for the longest summary in the history of the podcast...
Jude gets a promotion! The Galaxy Class is the Worf of the Federation ships. Klingon Armadas are disruptive. Worf is also disruptive. Odo shows his affection by spying on you. Certainly nothing could go wrong with a Klingon preemptive strike... Clearly they added Worf to the cast to add a terrible father to the mix. DS9's got guns! Justen makes a comparison that hurts Jude's soul.

Facets: Nothing can go wrong with everyone embodying Dax's former hosts, right? Dax gives Quark an earjob just to make him be a woman. Kurzodo? Maybe this episode is more about Kurzon and Sisko's relationship? Yikes. Nog is starting on a great journey, and Rom is lovely. The benefits of a strong ensemble cast. Avery Brooks' "creepy voice". Trek episodes where familiar actors play different characters is always fun.
The Adversary: Ben gets a promotion! Captain is the highest non-flag rank in Starfleet. We see more of the Defiant. Another infiltration plot. It's weird to not hate Eddington in this episode but we're going with it. On the other hand, Eddington is the one character who does not get weird with aliens.

It's still a provisional government?! A lot happens in this episode to move the Bajor plot forward. Disability and injury in storytelling. 20th century comparisons. Kai Winn is charismatic, unfortunately.

Jude bucks for a promotion again (they all forgot he got one at the beginning of season 2).
Explorers: Sisko advances to "project sailboat in the garage" dad status. Oh yeah, Dax was a dad at one point. Bashir gets lovingly teased by roughly half the principal cast. What a great Bashir and O'Brien scene. Jake's career plans, and Jake's opinions of his dad. The question of maintaining lab cleanliness.
Family Business: Women earning profit? Time to go to Ferenginar and deal with Moogie. So many river names, so many runabouts blown up. Jake's matchmaking skills. Captain Dad. Ferengi are the anti-hobbits.

Improbable Cause: Directed by Avery Brooks! It's weird how major diplomatic incidents frequently get explained away by "they're Romulan". [GENERIC CAVE SET]. This episode is like "Coming of Shadows" from DS9. Garak is so perfectly disinterested in Julius Caesar. Jude admits he doesn't hate Odo any more. The principles of not over-using a looming threat. You know Garak's not lying when he actually says he doesn't know.
The Die is Cast: That fucker Eddington. Honestly, the Dominion's response to this incident seems thoroughly justifiable under the rules of war. Garak and Odo share a unique exile bond. Is the comparison between Wolf 359 and this engagement apt? Sometimes badmirals never reappear.
We are joined once again by noted Wolf 359 historian Andy! Andy is a life long fan of Sci-fi in all of its forms and creator and co-writers of the Wolf 359 Project, an oral history of the Battle of Wolf 359. He also hosts his own podcast ‘The Great Derelict’ where he talks about anything and everything to do with Sci-Fi. You can find him on most Social Media as Andy3E, the Wolf 359 Project is @Wolf359Project everywhere and check out Tranquility Press here.

Mirror Kurzon was definitely into it. Maybe the reason the Mirror Universe is so stupid is because the blood goes down to your junk. Cross-dimensional STIs. Mirror Garak is a pathetic little meow-meow. Sisko is a good action commander. Mirror Universe episodes are a chaotic, horny delight.

Visionary: O'Brien Suffers Level--Harry Kim. Klingons, Romulans, and weird radiation, oh my. Klingon spies. Romulans went down a different 4x tech tree. Jude makes a prediction about Morn. O'Brien is so good because he follows regulations and makes good decisions.
Distant Voices: Bashir is turning 30! Every Trek series needs a dream sequence working through trauma. The problems with age makeup.

Destiny: We stuff each other in lockers. No vole fights. Sisko's struggles with the role of Emissary. The Stressed Cardassian, the Horny Cardassian, and the Angry Cardassian. We like Galora better than Lochley. Dax has been allll over.
O'Brien Suffers Level--propositioned in a Jeffries Tube.
Prophet Motive: Directed by Odo. Jude hates Umak. A revised Rules of Acquisition? Live troll handjobs on television. Jude mixes comedic metaphors. Derailed by the Emmys. We all need a Dax in our lives. The Wormhole Aliens heard about capitalism and decided "well, we need to fix that". And then they realized it would mean visitors, and said "well actually never mind."

Jude is Calvin's Dad.
Life Support:
Odo resolves any problem via incarceration, including friendships. Sisko continues to be Good Dad. The Ferengi misogyny is real bad, and the Nog plot is only redeemed by knowing what it is going to be set in contrast with. Bashir is stuck between a rock and a hard Kai.
Heart of Stone:
The Cave Set returns. Odo is suspicious of Nerodo shipping. Odo's wet fascist sisterwife. The start of a very important plotline, which only works because Sisko understands Ferengi so well. Vilix'pran! Maybe the A plot is there to give the B plot more air.
